Article in daily mail seems random at first glance and full of comments asking so what etc but isn’t their a rumour that Prince William had an affair with this woman?!

Kate Middleton 'went to music festival' with her friend Rose Hanbury

The Princess of Wales, 41, is understood to have made her first ever visit to a music festival at the weekend, albeit a very upper-class one at Houghton Hall in Norfolk.

What's your AIBU?

Clearly it's not a secret!

patterpittercake · 14/08/2023 19:52

I can't believe anyone would give a flying f**k about this.

MrsKwazi · 14/08/2023 19:55

The affair never happened. Giles Coren (career twat) made up and the rags lapped it up.

Runnerinthenight · 14/08/2023 19:56

It was bullshit!

CantThinkOfANameAtAll · 14/08/2023 19:58

Rumours aren't real. It didn't happen.

CurlewKate · 14/08/2023 19:59

Nobody knows whether the rumours are true or not!

spitefulandbadgrammar · 14/08/2023 19:59

Looks like the music festival featured a big tent, I imagine they had some trouble pegging it.

I’ve just posted about this on the royal board

tabloids always nearly tell you something when they’re not allowed to run the real story. Given this is a total non story but there are lots of comments throughout then I’m quite sure they are trying to tell us something about their relationship

Thedogscollar · 14/08/2023 20:00

Not this again.🙄

Or... They're trying to generate advertising revenue via clicks.

The only interesting or surprising revelation here is that someone in her forties has not been to a music festival before.

TroglodytesTroglodytes · 14/08/2023 20:06

What is the lineup of a ‘24hr upper class music festival’? Is it invite only?

CurlewKate · 14/08/2023 20:09

@patterpittercake "I can't believe anyone would give a flying f**k about this."

Oh I love a bit of gossip. I'm a Republican, so I reckon they owe me some entertainment!

My friend was engaged to and had a child with a celebrity. The utter, utter shit the papers published about them/her was at times hilarious and at others baffling and upsetting. Some of the stuff was genuinely just made up out of nothing. I wouldn't believe the majority of celeb/royal news stories.

dooneyousmugelf · 14/08/2023 20:20

They are definitely hinting at something, with their 'pictured on the left, William at a club last year' or whatever it says 😂

I enjoyed that @spitefulandbadgrammar

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 14/08/2023 20:23

I want to know what makes a music festival upper class. Is it just very expensive - but aren’t they all? - or is it invitation only?

Are YOU 100% sure he has a mistress? 😂 can’t disparage someone by saying they’re not sure and then claim to be sure of a rumour yourself.

Show quote history

I know, I was joking, but I thought it was a tradition for the Elite Royals to have a mistress 😆

I mean, I wouldn't be surprised. If someone with his upbringing was merely adulterous rather than deeply damaged, that's probably a win overall.

Pippa naming her DD Rose makes me doubt the RH story though.
